The brushed etched stainless steel plaque is nicely bedded into the wooden slat of this three-slat, flat bench that overlooks the cliffs and ocean. It reads:
In loving memory of
Ashton Prentice Victor Meadows
21 August 1977 - 19 January 2014
Beloved son, husband, father and friend
Lost while fishing off this turbulent and beautiful coastline.
A life not to be measured in years but in the passion, love and laughter he shared.
The Dedicated Bench just has three wooden slats for the base of the bench and they are supported by two copper logs.
The George Bass Coastal Walk goes right past this rugged but scenic spot. You should be able to find a few geocaches along this walk!
"The popular George Bass Coastal Walk is a cliff top walk that stretches from the outskirts of San Remo at Punchbowl Road, to the Bass Highway (just opposite the hall at Peppermint Road) in Kilcunda.
"The walk is approximately seven kilometres long and takes an average of 2 hours to walk one way. The walk offers spectacular views of the coastline and follows the route of the explorer George Bass' epic voyage of discovery along the southern edge of the Anderson Peninsula, over 200 years ago.
"An average level of fitness is required for the walk, as it includes using stiles over farm fences." Bass Coast: George Bass Coastal Walk
